Course Description
WiMAX Professional Certification proves that you have the skills to design, install, or operate WiMAX networks. Move your career ahead by distinguishing yourself in the wireless industry with a WiMAX professional certification

This course is a four-day program, which is designed for engineers who will be implementing the core elements of a WiMAX network.The session will include a demo project with WiMAX data and high-resolution GIS database.The database will allow the participants to experience planning, to do simple checks and to see the effect of factors (like the OFDM channel, diversity mechanism, clutter environment, propagation model etc.) on the resulted plan.

You will be using a product containing a comprehensive multi-technology and user-friendly radio planning and optimization tool that supports wireless operators during all stages of a network's lifetime - initial design, system deployment and operation. The product integrates sophisticated propagation models and cutting-edge optimization techniques to provide operators with planning recommendations for efficient network deployment, operation, and maintenance.There wil be also basic configuration of WiMAX Equipment

The course is knowledge-based, with hands-on equipment and laptop-based interactive labs and network planning exercises.
